Relatively early morning.
Back at home ... mowing the lawn. At first, I thought I could call it off - I couldn't see any difference between mowed and not yet mowed, and there was hardly anything in the bag ... then I realised that I had left it on the second lowest setting. Changed it, and suddenly the bag started to fill up! Still not much, though - well, it hadn't rained much.
I thought for a while that I would be able to do that portion I hadn't done last week - it was going really well for a while ... until I got to THAT portion! I did some of it, but I gave up. Again. After some choice words at high volume!
I decided to spend the last hour of sunlight taking a closer look at that portion ... well, no wonder I can't mow that! It's mostly that hard crap! I tried pulling all that hard crap out in one patch - and was left with nothing! As in: a brown patch of soil! That's disheartening, because it means that I'll either have to laboriously clear that entire large portion ... or turn that entire area over! Either way, it's going to be a tough, hard labour job!
I'm not sure, though, whether I should first focus on all the offspring spreading throughout the entire garden, or start cleaning the mother-load (sorry, I couldn't resist that).
On the whole, though, it's much, much better than last year this time! I'm getting somewhere ... albeit slowly.
And then Smeagol attacked Mewthos! And right afterwards he had another go, this time at Ziva! Sigh ... he'd come so far, and now this? At least neither seem to have any injury!
Another sigh: internet is not playing along ... well ... lets hope it picks up tomorrow!
